Do the continuing education hours required to maintain a professional license count toward the administrator requirements?
It depends. If the administrator is in the process of obtaining the initial training requirements for a first-time administrator, then the professional education must relate to the required topics listed in the regulation at 40 TAC ยง97.259. For continuing education purposes, the topics should relate to the HCSSA industry and the duties of the administrator or at least two of the topics listed in the rule 97.259 (h). DADS surveyors will examine course documentation, including certificates, course agendas and outlines, to determine if this requirement is met.
